Tonight is the first night in nearly three weeks that we have come home from work - as normal - cooked dinner - as normal - eaten at a normal time, and just settled down for a quiet evening, and very welcome it is too. We're expecting that Dad will be in hospital for around another week - he's in the Regional Cardothoracic Centre now which is 25 miles away so quite a journey.
In other news we dashed up to Sheringham for the weekend to go to the North Norfolk Railway beer festival - camping on our usual favourite site with a couple of good friends. It's always a good few days - usually in spite of the weather (and this year was no exception!) and this year was further enhanced by meeting up with a few other pals unexpectedly too. We're hoping to sneak off again this weekend too - Suffolk this time to celebrate my birthday - I do like a nice birthday treat! (And Fish & Chips at Aldeburgh ticks that box nicely!) Will just be Friday evening through to Sunday - we'll be aiming to be back in time to see Dad on Sunday.
Hopefully normal service will be resumed soon - and I'll try to get back to slightly more regular blogging!

Good to hear the bypass has went well & I hope you didn't find tonight's visit too upsetting & stressful. I remember what it was like the first time I visited my mum in a similar (but different) situation in hospital and it's terrifying. Love and my thoughts are with you. Sx
Thanks Sara - he was actually looking far better than we expected he might, albeit with lines in everywhere and still on a little oxygen just to help his levels. It was definitely reassuring to see him looking so well.
